FACTORIAL SUM LISTINPUT FILE: fact.in
OUTPUT FILE: fact.out
Start with any number, say 25. Find the sum of the factorial (N! = N factorial
= 1 x 2 x 3 x ... x N; 0! = 1 by convention) of each of the digits of 25: 2!
+ 5! = 2 + 120 = 122. Repeat this procedure (in this case you will get 1! +
2! + 2! = 1 + 2 +2 =5). Continue summing the factorials of individual digits
until your list repeats a number. For example for 25 you will get the following
list:
25 122 5 120 4 24 26 722 5044 169 363601 1454 169
At this point you got a repetition (169), so your list will repeat forever and
you'd might as well stop now. Your list has 13 elements.
Write a program that asks the user to enter any number from 1 to 9999999 and computes the FACTORIAL SUM LIST until a duplicate number is found. The output for your program should be the length of your list.
